TO BUY PART OF
NAVAL SUPPLIES
tdrtland manufacturers and busi
ness houses will participate in the
purchase of $200,000,000 worth of
, excess naval supplies from the fed
eral jpoyernment, John S. Brinkley,
salesman for the board of survey,
appraisal and sale of the thirteenth
naval district, arrived this morning
from "the Puget Sound navy yard
and plans to open an office here.
Competitive bids will be opened at Se
attle Tuesday forenoon for the pur
chase of 1000 tons of scrap steel and a
great variety of Mother material and sup
plies. M. Barde & Sons recently pur
chased from the board over 80,000 tons
of steel plates, according- to Brinkley,
' and -probably will be among the bid
ders on allotments sold Tuesday.
There are vast quantities of food sup
plies and clothing among the stores of
; f ered at the Puget Sound navy yard
and these may be purchased in small
consignments. It is not probable, how
ever, the government will open a retail
store here for the sale of this material,
according to Brinkley. A large number
of launches and other craft. Including
several small cruisers, all of which are
now In Atlantic waters, have been placed
' on the sales list. ,
At the Puget Sound yard there Is over
$1,000,000 worth of canvas of various
weights and qualities, offered at prices
far below what the retail stores are ask
ing. . Baseballs, bate, mitts and other
sporting goods are offered in large quan
tities, as well as camp equipment, ham
mocks, clocks, wrist watches, china and
steel ware. Brinkley is registered at
the' Multnomah hotel and will remain
here all this week.

NUMBER OF CLERKS
IN U. S. SERVICE
LESS SINCE WAR
. Washington, May 24. (WASH
INGTON BUREAU OF THE JOUR
NAL.) The wan of government
clerks which inundated Washington
in war time is slowly receding, and
has at last sunk below the 100,000
mark. As the number was less than
40,000 before the war, and at the
highest point did not reach 120,000,
it will be seen that there is still a
large surplus as compared with pre
war days.
It is not expected that the number
will ever again fall back anywhere near
the old basis. Besides the normal growth
of the departments, congress has added
a number of new agencies and commis
sions which will be permanently main
tained. The army and navy have been
largely expanded, and the work of the
treasury department bureaus has' grown
enormously In the revenue collection,
farm loan and prohibition enforcement
divisions.
TOTAL REACHED 117,454
Figures recently complied show that
on April 1, 1917, the number of federal
civilian employes In the civil service in
the District of Columbia numbered 37.:
908, the treasury then having over 8000,
the navy over 6000 and the interior over
5000. On the day of the armistice the
total reached 117,454. By July 1, 191S.
the number had been reduced to 102,126,
and has remained near that figure until
the last' few weeka The last complete
report was for January 31, 1920, and
showed 100,110. Since then about 2090
have been dropped from the war depart
ment and it is expected that 6000 or 6000
more than will be off the rolls of that
department by July 1. . .
CESSU8 ABSORBS SOME
Some other departments are reducing,
also, while others are taking on new
employee. The census work came along
in time to absorb many of those who
might have been dropped entirely. The
Interstate commerce commission is ex
panding to grapple with the new duties
given it under the transportation, act.
Substantial reductions will be required
In several bureaus because of reduced
appropriations made at the present ses
sion, but it seems unlikely that the little
army of government workers In Wash
ington will fall below 80,000 for some
time to come, if ever.

6(7,744 ARE EMPLOYED
Outside of the District of Columbia
there were 657,744 persons employed in
the government service, on figures com
piled for July, 1919, of whom nearly
half, or 284,377, were in the postoff ice
service. This number compares with
476,388 when the United States went to
war, and gives a grand total of 757,854
government employes when those in the
District of Columbia are added.
. If the population of the United States
is 107,000,000 or thereabouts, seven
tenths ' of 1 per cent of the population

REDFIELD WARNS
AGAINST SOVIET
PROPAGANDA HERE
"William C. Redfield, formerly
United States secretary of commerce
and now president of the Russian
American Chamber of Commerce,
was the principal speaker at : the
luncheon of the Portland- Chamber
of Commerce Monday noom
To the business men of the northwest
Redfield carried the message "Beware
of Soviet Propaganda." Reciprocity for
the assistance of Russia to the United
States In the past . was used as an
argument ' to urge the lifting of the
embargo now in - force. Benefits to
Pacific coast exporters, as well as to
the entire union, were pointed out.
- High price of shoes was a subject
touched on by Redfield. Large exports
of calfskin from Russia have been
stopped. Platinum, flax, 85 per cent of
which, formerly came from Russia;
500.000,000 bushels of wheat and other
commodities produced were cited as
evidence of the necessity of cooperation.
Following Redfield, Paul P. .Whlthara,
trade commissioner to China, spoke
briefly on stimulating trade relations
between the Orient and ports on the
Pacific . coast. A large volume of busl- (
ness, , now dormant, could be quickened
by the' active assistance of the United
States and would rebound to the bene
fit of the' Pacific coast in particular,

Portland's Strides
Impressed Chinese,
Says. Trade Seeker
Inauguration of 'steamship service be
tween the Columbia river and the Orient
and the remarkable war time shipbuild
ing record of this district have placed
Portland on the . commercial map for
China and its position is being strength
ened every day, according to the state
ment of Paul P. Whltham, United States
trade commissioner- to China, who ar
rived this morning.
Whltham has been in the countries of
the Far East for three years and came
to America to attend the national-, for
eign trade convention at San Francisco.
He addressed the members' forum of the
Chamber of Commerce at noon and will
give an illustrated lecture on "China" at
Library hall tonight.
"China is now exporting products val
ued at . 8 1.690.000.000 annually," said
Whitham. "Most of the time I was In
the Orient I studied transportation prob
lems and have been assured that China
with proper rail - systems could export
gooda valued at $5,000,000,000.
"To obtain this development China
must depend upon the United States -for
finance, the same as this country looked
to Europe In Its infancy. ' Americans
are the most favored people in the Far
Cast and they will reap the profits of
any Investment made"
Whltham Is a former resident of Port
land, and the Northwest, having worked
on several engineering-projects on the
Columbia river. ,
